The Mystery of the New Moon and the Black Haired Inuyasha
A boy asks Kagome out on a date. She says yes but soon after that she and Inuyasha go through the well and return to the feudal era. They meet a Nazuna, a teenage girl whose parents were killed by Spider Demons. Nazuna lives with a priest who seems to be friendly.
The new moon rises that night. Inuyasha turns human. His hair turns black and he loses all vestiges of his demonic ancestry. He explains to Kagome that this happens on a regular basis.
The friendly priest turns out to be a not so friendly spider demon who has been using Nazuna as bait to lure others to him. Kagome uses Tessaiga, Inuyasha’s sword, to keep the spider demon at bay. The spider demon doesn’t break through their defenses until dawn. The spider demon tries to kill Inuyasha but Inuyasha reverts to being a half demon and kills the spider demon.
The episode ends with Kagome, Inuyasha, and their companions parting ways with Nazuna and bidding her good luck.
Thoughts
I didn’t mention them in my summary but Myoga and Shippo are also traveling with Inuyasha and Kagome in this episode.
The story finally returns to the feudal era after two episodes set in the modern era. Once again Kagome and Inuyasha seem to grow a bit closer as she learns more about him.
The demon seemed very plain outside of his appearance, very monster of the week. This episode was okay but I wouldn’t describe it as anything special.
